  Wedding writers face particular challenges, envy being one of them, especially if the writer happens to be single, as Lucky is. Who are all these smug people, thinking life is just one great big happily ever after? Does anyone truly believe in fairytales any more?

  It's a different kind of `big day' at Your Wedding magazine. Lucky Quinn - once a lowly wedding writer - is thrust into the spotlight as Editor-in-Chief on the same day that two of the magazine's major competitors fold.

  Things are looking worse for sacked former-editor Grace Ralston, who has been at the helm of Your Wedding from day one, and is now facing a lonely, uncertain and unemployed future. Meanwhile Lucky must face the confusion and disappointment of her new staff, who are struggling with their own professional and personal issues in the wake of Grace's departure.

  For better or for worse, each woman confronts her past and deals with her hectic present in this tale of women, work and the world of weddings.

  Once a lowly wedding writer, Leigh Lucky Quinn is thrust into power as Your Wedding magazine's new Editor-in-Chief on the same day that two of the magazine's major competitors fold. It's the Big Day for Lucky and Your Wedding, as well as for the deposed EIC, Grace Ralston, who has been at Your Wedding's helm from day one, and had taken Lucky under her wing. While the formidable Grace faces the humiliation of sudden failure and being forcibly removed from her office (and a future that looms as emptily as an unemployed, pre-cocktail-hour afternoon), Lucky must face the confusion and disappointment of her new staff, especially Felice and Sara, the Art and Fashion directors leftover from Grace's regime. In the wake of Lucky's ascension, for better or for worse, each woman confronts her past and deals with her hectic present in this juicy tale about work, love, loss and the world of bridal weddings.
